Hey @kyleplaysdrums.bsky.social @jpretus.bsky.social It’s a little unnerving to be standing there taking a leak at NOLA Brewing and have this staring back at me 🤣

I work at a medical school and you can tell it’s the first day of classes because the private bathroom on our floor has been occupied, without break, since 7:00 AM.

See the kid on the left in the Tulane shirt standing next to WWE Superstar AJ Styles in 2016? Well, his journey towards getting his master’s degree in English begins today at…TULANE. A Helluva Hullabaloo to you, Jackson! Go get ‘em and ROLL WAVE.🌊

She had to work until after 7:00 PM, so this is definitely my daughter’s first “grownup” birthday, but we still had a blast. I picked up Venezia for dinner and, as per tradition, watched a movie of her choosing (Beauty and the Beast) and a fine time was had by all. Happy birthday, Peyton!

This has never happened in all our years of flying. We were the only people that stayed on the plane during a layover. Then our pilot got sick and we had to get off the plane. Then we got a new pilot and…are the only people on the plane AGAIN (for now). SUMMER TRAVEL BAYBEEEE!!!

It’s the biggest movie weekend in years so, naturally, we’re going to see…an indie sex comedy directed by Gregg Araki.😂 Time for “I Want Your Sex!”

Time was a little tight today so I did a quick walkabout to revisit my favorite spots from the last few days. The people here are unbelievably kind and friendly. If you’re ever in Mexico City, tell Fred at Galiachef hello for me. Nicest guy ever and makes the best Croque Madame I’ve ever had.

Another incredible day of exploring. A record store hates to see me coming!

World Cup done! Now it’s time to watch a dark comedy about swingers (as one does with their children). It’s time for The Invite!

I had to get a new parking sticker for my car at work. I was in a hurry to put it on and it’s 0.0000000001% crooked, so I have no choice but to throw a match in the car and walk away now. Please respect my privacy during this difficult time.

Kept it mellow today. Had some pizza and watched some World Cup action. Perfect Father’s Day if you ask me.🙂🍕⚽️

We go way back with the Toy Story franchise. Toy Story 2, in particular, was a BIG fave when these guys were wee ones. So, of course, we HAVE to go see the new one. The cynic in me is hoping this isn’t merely a cash grab, but the romantic in me hopes it’s full of laughs, fun and heart.

Kyle Melancon @kyleplaysdrums.bsky.social · 18/06/2026

What. A. Day. Never thought I’d see a World Cup game in person. To see it with my son only made it MORE special. Eternal thanks to Jackson’s grandfather Ron Zibilich for making it happen. I may have left my $20 World Cup popcorn bucket in the Uber, but the memories are priceless.

Kyle Melancon @kyleplaysdrums.bsky.social · 17/06/2026

WHAT UP, DFW?!?!? The Melancon Boys are in Dallas!!! Jackson’s grandfather got him tickets to the WORLD CUP for his birthday but he wasn’t feeling up to the trip, so he very graciously asked me if I’d like to go. Ummmm…YES! Tomorrow is 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 vs 🇭🇷!!! But first…PIZZA!!!!

Kyle Melancon @kyleplaysdrums.bsky.social · 13/06/2026

I have so many great memories of seeing Spielberg movies during the summers of my youth, it’s kind of neat to now watch one with my own kids. It’s time for Disclosure Day!

My brother finally decided to go through some film negatives from the 90s he had in storage and found among them this photo of me playing at Jimmy’s. I can’t be more than 19 or so here. Such youthful innocence. Well, youth anyway.🙃

Weekend washout means going to see the 25th Anniversary screening of Legally Blonde! I’m looking forward to this as I haven’t seen it since 2001 and could use some endorphins. To quote Elle Woods: “Exercise gives you endorphins. Endorphins make you happy.”

Happy birthday to the one and only Jackson Melancon! He’ll be spending pretty much the entirety of his birthday on airplanes, but it’s okay because the destination is a two week visit to Paris and Normandy. Couldn’t be prouder or love this dude more. Have a great trip, Jackson, and happy birthday!🎊

Kyle Melancon @kyleplaysdrums.bsky.social · 13/05/2026

Jackson’s actual birthday is Sunday, but he’ll be on a plane bound for Paris that day (what a hard life!) so we did his birthday dinner tonight! Great meal and great company. Happy early birthday, Jack!!!🎊🎂🎉

It feels like he just started yesterday, but here we are having dinner in Shreveport the night before Jackson graduates from Centenary College. Tempus fugit.

It’s the last day of Jazz Fest! Which, of course, means seeing a double feature of Past Lives and Everything Everywhere All At Once!

Proud Dad Alert, Part 9,541: Extremely excited to announce that my son has been offered admission to Tulane University for Grad School, and…he has accepted the offer! So proud of you, Jackson! Also, ROLL WAVE!🌊

Success! Record Store Day, as always, was super fun. I’ve been up since 6:30 AM, so now it’s time for a well deserved nap. #rsd2026 @jpretus.bsky.social @rankingthebeatles.bsky.social

As these breaks always seem to, Spring Break went by TOO FAST! This time next month, Jackson will be GRADUATING from college. Where did the time go?!?!? Enjoy the rest of the semester, Jack!

Kept it mellow this Easter. Ate some Popeyes and played a bunch of trivia games. Perfect day if you ask me.

Good Friday? How about GREAT FRIDAY! Always a pleasure to catch up with two dudes I love a whole lot. Also, I’ve never been to Atchafalaya and I’m here to tell you it’s DELICIOUS.

After seeing ten thousand movies at Canal Place for Oscar Season, it’s nice to be back at AMC for a good old fashioned blockbuster. Project Hail Mary, here we come!

Loved every bit of #RexComus on here tonight. It’s my favorite social media day of the year and tonight felt like old times for a few hours. Until next year!
